Re: your screen name. I'm a little bit embarrassed now because the first poem I thought of was Catullus 58, instead of Catullus 5--it is from 5, isn't it? My Catullus-fu is weak.
Anyway, hi Klio. I've been reading SPQR Blues for a few months now, since my girlfriend turned me on to it. Needless to say, I think it's great--especially the way you deal with the social interactions and mores (e.g., the whole "moral turpitude" thing) and all the details of Roman (Herculaneumian?) life. And, I squee over Mus and Menander. Is it ok if I friend you?
